Mrs. Green is telling her experience

The brain is the most amazing part of our bodies.But just like our bodies,it needs care.Getting a good night's sleep.eating a balanced diet(均衡饮食)and taking deep breaths are all important ways of looking after both your body and your brain.

Many people think their brain will slow down with age and their memory will get worse.The truth is,just like your body,you can also improve your brain.I've found I can improve my memory by picturing what I need to remember.For example,if I'm going shopping and I need bread milk and a birthday card for my brother,I picture a loaf of bread,a bottle of milk with a cow in the front and a birthday card with a football on it.

The same kind of thing can be used with important dates.If you have a picture in your mind of a special event(事件),it's much easier to remember than just a number.

Another way of improving your mind is to make sure you often visit new places and have new experiences.I find learning Spanish is a great way to keep the brain working,but communication in any language is important.

1.What is the woman’s main aim in telling her experience?

A.To explain how the brain works.   

B.To talk about problems with the brain.

C.To describe how clever she has become.

D.To tell ways to make the memory better.

2.How does the woman improve her memory?

A.By doing some medical research.   

B.By looking after her body.

C.By picturing what she needs to remember.

D.By doing a lot of shopping.

3.What does the woman say about her own memory?

    A.It has been possible to make her memory better.

    B.She finds dates more difficult to remember than numbers.

    C.It has got worse over the years.

D.She often forgets birthdays.

4.Which would be the best title for the passage?

    A.Easy ways Io improve your mind

    B.The latest research into the brain

    C.The amazing power of memory

    D.How to remember things you thought you'd forgotten

Danny was just tired about the way things were going. His mum came to school and talked on and on about Rick Jackson. It seemed that she would never stop talking. “Somebody’s got to stop that boy!” she was shouting. “Rick’s troubling everybody in the neighborhood. And he loves to pick on little boys like Danny.”

Mrs. Green, Danny’s teacher, was concerned a lot. “I didn’t know that Danny was being picked on,” she said. “He’s never said anything about this to me!” Mrs. Green looked at Danny. “How long had this been going on?” she asked. Danny could only shake his head and look at the floor. He knew if he said a word about this, he would have trouble at school.

Danny hadn’t said anything about the problem because he wanted to do things with the boys in the neighborhood. After all, most of them were nice to him. He hated to leave the gang just because of Rick. Maybe the time had come to find new friends. He felt it hard to make up his mind.
